    No the 272 ones aren’t the same, the 310mm callipers and carriers are much larger and the carriers are cut out to take the much thicker vented discs.

     

    The vRS 245 backplates don’t fit, the 245 discs don’t fit either so god knows what’s gone on to make the track wider on the FL but it’s quite extensive. I think Golf 7 PP and CS backplates fit but they are on back order for now. The discs and pads are brembo fitment for the S3 8P.

     

    @SashaGrace where did you source the calipers and carriers from

    Tiny original 272 solid rear discs gone, S3 8P callipers and 310 vented rear discs all fitted and sorted at last! This pic also highlights the thicker sidewall on my 235/35/19 tyres vs the old 225 ones. Now I need to cross my fingers the Golf 7 PP rear shields are the same as the 245 ones don’t fit!!

    Typically, the pad light has come on now to tell me the front ones need doing! Another £55 to ECP for more brembo brake parts.

     

    Are the s3 8p calipers the same as ones already fitted to the vrs.  Sure the calipers and carriers are the same on most models with a normal handbrake.   it's just the backplates and discs that are different

  3. As above, you are on the borderline as to whether it can be done on a preFL. I can activate mine on a March 2008 build.

     

    If you can, the coding is

     

    Pre facelift models VCDS module 09 Central Electronics

    Long Coding Helper

    Byte 23 Bit 2 Internal Turn Light Algorithm Active - TICK for active, UNTICK for inactive

    Byte 23 Bits 3-4 Set to 08 Turn Lights via Fog Lights

     

     

    If those options are not there, you will not be able to activate the cornering lights.

     

    I have mine switched off, I found they are useless on the Octavia, and look chavvy.

    Can this be done on a 10 plate vrs estate with led drl lights

  4. There will be more that that. Bonneville car. Rally car. And a certain vintage SKODA worth approx. £250,000.

    Surprised there's not been more take-up from around here to be honest. I'll be there in my Superb - weather's meant to be excellent as well.

    Ill be there in my superb aswell. Have to have a chat and compare
